GOTHAM: Riddler Actor & 2 Others Promoted To Series Regulars
The Hollywood Reporter reports, Cory Michael Smith, Victoria Cartagena and Andrew Stewart Jones have all been promoted to series regular on Fox's Gotham.
Last week, it was officially announced that Batman-less television series, Gotham, was picked up by Fox and a full season has been ordered. Today, The Hollywood Reporter has learned that actors Cory Michael Smith, Victoria Cartagena and Andrew Stewart Jones have been promoted to series regulars. All three had guest roles in the pilot. Smith plays forensic scientist Edward Nygma. A character that in the comics eventually becomes The Riddler. Cartagena (Renee Montoya) and Jones (Crispus Allen) both play Gotham detectives.
Based upon characters published by DC Entertainment and produced by Warner Bros. Television, GOTHAM is an origin story of the great DC Comics Super-Villains and vigilantes, revealing an entirely new chapter that has never been told. Starring Ben McKenzie ("Southland," "The O.C."), Donal Logue ("Sons of Anarchy," "Terriers," "Vikings," "Copper") and Jada Pinkett Smith ("The Matrix" films, "HawthoRNe"), GOTHAM follows one cop's rise through a dangerously corrupt city teetering on the edge of evil and chronicles the birth of one of the most popular super heroes of our time. Executive producer Bruno Heller ("The Mentalist") wrote the pilot, which was directed and executive-produced by Emmy Award nominee Danny Cannon (the "CSI" franchise, "Nikita"). John Stephens will serve as an executive producer on the series.
